What you need to renew your car licence disc
Documents you will need to renew your car license disc.
With only a glance at your windscreen to remind you about renewing your licence disc, Rekord has made things easier for motorists by making a list of documents required.
Before dashing off to the post office to make sure your vehicle is on the road legally, ensure that your post office of choice does process licence disc renewals.
Check if your nearest Post Office does here.
To renew your licence disc, you will need your:
- ID book
- Motor vehicle licence renewal notice (MVL2)
- Licensing fees (usually only in cash)
- Proof of postal and physical address (utilities account only)
When renewing a licence disc for an organisation, you will need:
- The organisation’s business certificate
- ID book of the proxy
- Letter of proxy
- Motor vehicle licence renewal notice (MVL2)
- Licensing fees (usually only in cash)
- Proof of postal and physical address (utilities account only)
If your name does not appear on the utilities account, an affidavit, stating you live at the address, will be required from the person whose name the account is in.
Those living in informal settlements will need a letter from a ward councillor with an official date stamp to confirm the postal and residential address provided.
Should details change, a notification of change in particulars form will need to be completed and handed in.
If you do not have or did not receive the motor vehicle license renewal notice, the application form thereof (ALV1) can be downloaded from www.licenserenewal.co.za
